New Home for Migwe


My canary, Migwe, got a new cage. This is a flight cage given to me by a friend of Offspring #1. Migwe is on the right side of the cage there, just minutes after arrival. A friend told me that when you move a goldfish from a small bowl into an aquarium, the fish swims in circles the same size as the small bowl. I wondered if this would happen to Migwe - if he'd flit about the size of a small cage. That didn't happen. For one thing, the food dish on the right is farther from the water dish on the left. That alone forced him to expand his range. He has a lot more room to roam in this cage. I hope he likes it. This cage came with an electric perch. You can see it on the left side of the cage below three wood perches. The electric perch is gray and points toward the camera. You plug it in. The first time I saw it I thought, well, never mind what I thought. It's an electric perch and has a thermostat that will keep Migwe's talons warm when the temperature drops at night.
